Henry and Catherine- Conditional

What did Henry VII  do to unite England?                  
What did He (and Elizabeth) do to create a close relationship with Spain?


Conditional sentences and the Divine Right:

Arthur should have been king, not Henry . If Arthur had been
Arthur shouldn't have died   If Arthur hadn't
Catherine and Arthur should have had a son  If..
Catherine of Aragon shouldn't have married Henry If.
Henry had to ask permission to the Pope If Henry hadn't/ needn't 
Catherine and Henry shouldn't have had a daughter.  If..

Break with Rome

If  Henry hadn't married Catherine,
 if he hadn't had to ask the Pope's permission,
  if they had had a son instead of a daughter,
   if he hadn't had to ask the Pope for a divorce,
    if the Pope had given him the divorce
     THEN,      he wouldn't have had to 


BREAK WITH ROME

                                                        and History would have been written in a different way!

                                                        (it is all about DIVINE RIGHT!! Birth-Marriage-Death)

House of Lancaster / HOuse of YOrk

EVERYTHING in History used to be related to Marriage- Birth -Death
That is why people believed in the DIVINE RIGHT,

How did Henry Tudor make sure he and his descendants would remain kings?
He married Elizabeth of York and had 8 children!
Thus, he created a new rose - A red and white one

The War of Roses

Let's start at the beginning of our timeline;

The War of Roses
Famous last words!
This war is not called war of roses because it took place in a garden. It is called war of roses because the House of Lancaster and the House of York both had a rose as a symbol

Red rose of  Lancaster      White rose of York

In battle Henry Tudor defeated Richard III and became King of England 
starting the HOUSE OF TUDORS

Years later , Shakespeare wrote a story about the evil King Richard III 
Was King Richard an evil king?
